Afraid that I’m too clingy and bother people

[Kat63]

The headline says it all. I need to reach out to people - I have a lot of need for reassurance from other people these days. But I’m afraid if I get too needy, they’ll run the other way.

I completely understand how you feel. I always feel like I'm bothering people so don't like to ask for anything or reach out. It's like you want to connect with others but are scared of relying on them or getting attached so you keep some walls up to protect yourself. Then it's hard to open up because that fear is in the back of your head. Just another form of torture from our own minds 😕

I feel the same way. I feel somewhat like a child.
